Characterization of <styled-content toggle='no' style='fixed-case'>OXPHOS</styled-content> super‐assembly in zebrafish

Split channels of BNGE of mouse (M) C57BL/6J (111), CD1(113), and zebrafish (ZF) muscle mitochondria shown in Fig 1A and B.

Immunodetection of the indicated proteins after 2D BNGE/DDM electrophoresis of whole‐body zebrafish mitochondria (representative of = 3). Merged (D) and (E) split channels.

Diet‐induced recovery of <italic>scaf1</italic><sup>−/−</sup> phenotypes in males and diet effect in <styled-content toggle='no' style='fixed-case'>SCAF</styled-content>1‐deficient mice

Representative images of scaf1−/− and scaf1+/+ males fed with the indicated diets.

Size of males after the indicated diet. (B) Changes in length and (C) weight over time (Δ1 +/+ = 10, Δ1 −/− = 10, Δ2 +/+ = 10, Δ2 −/− = 7–8).

Effect of SCAF1 loss of function on weight gain in mice after starvation. (D) Scheme of the food restriction experiment in mice. (E) Impact of food restriction in C57BL/6JOlaHsd mice with the functional version of SCAF1 113/113, with the spontaneous mutation in SCAF1 111/111 (natural C57BL/6JOlaHsd mice harbor a non‐functional version of SCAF1) and in C57BL/6JOlaHsd mice without SCAF1 (SCAF1 KO, −/−). Males 111/111 = 3; males KO = 6; males 113/113 = 2; females 111/111 = 5; females KO = 8; females 113/113 = 5.

Data information: (B, C) Two‐way ANOVA. Data are represented as mean ± SD. *< 0.05, **< 0.01, ***< 0.001. (E) Data are represented as mean ± SEM.

Transgenic expression of <italic>scaf1</italic> recovers <styled-content toggle='no' style='fixed-case'>CIII</styled-content> and <styled-content toggle='no' style='fixed-case'>CIV</styled-content> super‐assembly and fish size of <italic>scaf1</italic><sup>−/−</sup> fish

Scheme of the transgenic construct Tg(ubi:scaf1). ubi, ubiquitin promoter. Βg‐intron, beta‐globin intron, pA, poly A, crys, crystalline promoter (used as selection marker).

Immunodetection of the indicated proteins of BNGE from whole fish mitochondria scaf1Δ1/Δ1 (−/−) expressing the transgenic construct Tg(ubi:scaf1) in heterozygosis, their scaf1Δ1/Δ1 siblings with no transgenic expression, and scaf1+/+ zebrafish (representative BNGE of = 5). Asterisks mark bands’ absence in scaf1Δ1/Δ1 (−/−) recovered by the transgenic expression of scaf1.

Representative images from scaf1+/+, scaf1Δ1/Δ1 (scaf1−/−), and scaf1−/−, Tg/− (C) female and (D) male zebrafish (3 mpf).

Size of scaf1+/+, scaf1Δ1/Δ1 (scaf1−/−), and scaf1−/−, Tg/− fish (E) length of females (scaf1+/+= 23, scaf1−/−= 39 and scaf1−/−, Tg/−= 25); and (F) males (scaf1+/+= 15, scaf1−/−= 31 and scaf1−/−, Tg/−= 44).

Data information: One‐way ANOVA. ns > 0.05, **< 0.01, ****< 0.0001. Data are represented as mean ± SD.

Lack of recovery of Scaf1<sup>−/−</sup> phenotypes after high‐fat diet

Representative images of scaf1−/− and scaf1+/+ females (A) and males (B) fed with the indicated diets.

Length of females (C) and males (D) after the indicated diets (Δ1 +/+ = 5, Δ1 −/− = 5, Δ2 +/+ = 5, Δ2 −/− = 5).

Weight of females (E) and males (F) after the indicated diets (Δ1 +/+ = 5, Δ1 −/− = 5, Δ2 +/+ = 5, Δ2 −/− = 5).

Number of eggs per clutch (control diet: Δ1 +/+ = 4, Δ1 −/− = 3, Δ2 +/+ = 3, Δ2 −/− = 2, high fat diet: Δ1 +/+ = 5, Δ1 −/−, = 5 Δ2 +/+ = 1, Δ2 −/− = 2).

Quantification of mature ovary follicles per ovary section in hematoxylin–eosin (H&E) histological sections (average of three sections/biological sample; Δ1 = 3, Δ2 = 3).

Adipose tissue quantification in H&E sections (Δ1 = 3, Δ2 = 3) in females (I, K) and males (J, L): adipose tissue area (I, J) and adipocyte size (K, L).

Data information: (C–F) Two‐way ANOVA. (G–L) Unpaired t‐test. Data are represented as mean ± SD. ns > 0.05, *< 0.05, **< 0.01, ***< 0.001, ****< 0.0001.
